Health
With one-in-five uninsured, Texas experiences one of the worst rates of healthcare coverage in the nation. Through federal action, Congresswoman Crockett works to expand access, lower cost, and keep Texans healthy. While our state continues to not expand Medicaid, despite given the option, additional creative methods must be explored so that more can experience coverage. Crockett is a staunch defender of the Affordable Care Act, and is eager to get to work on improving the healthcare law so that costs are lowered and access is expanded.
